He was alive at the time when the Catholics named it Lutheranism in an attempt to discredit the same.

I see, so it was his enemies who coined that slogan. That does not surprise me, but my opinion is, Luther probably never intended for there to be a "Lutheran" denomination. BTW, I have been to 3 different "Lutheran" churches. The only word I could think of, was icabod.
